Ralph Lauren - how to wear a tuxedo.
Note: the cummerbund
I’ve made it a habit the past two New Year’s Eves to wear a tuxedo and decided to forgo the cummerbund. I’ve decided that I want to pick up one (along with a better bowtie) for this year. Haven’t quite found one yet that I’m crazy about though. I do think it helps complete the look.
I’m also highly considering going for a MTM tuxedo shirt, but I haven’t fully committed myself to that just yet. Perhaps in the fall I’ll place an order.
A change in footwear might also be in order, as I really like the Kent Wang plain-toe balmorals and silk formal socks might be nice, too.
One thing you won’t see me going for? Opera pumps. Sorry, I know they’ve got the Put This On and Vox co-sign, but it’s just not for me.
